Ascend Mt. Helix for a dazzling view of San Diego County. The hills around Julian ring with legends of gold. On Mt. Palomar, see the Hale Telescope, the world's second-largest telescope that has a lens with a range surpassing one billion light years. The adjacent gallery displays photographs of Milky Way stars and other celestial wonders.

(Mt. Helix and Mt. Palomar aren't actually in Julian, but they're neat to see, too.)
